Tough situation with a month left in service
Edit: Blood test and urine test done at the hospital were both negative. Trashing the rest of my old tests and taking a nice long exhale. Thanks for all the feedback and advice. Lovely group of people, us PCVs
With a month left in service someone has completed the COS conference and is nearly done tying up loose ends in the community. After having stomach cramps the person takes three pregnancy tests and tests positive three times. Pregmate tests, not expired but almost certainly stored in an area above the recommended heat.
With a month left in service the persons ideal outcome is of course getting more tests done and it being a false alarm. The person also had a hormonal IUD implanted a little more than a year ago while back home on vacation (Talk about hypothetical bad luck). The likelihood of an ectopic pregnancy is greater because of the IUD. The second best outcome is being sent back to the states, for enough time to get a short and simple procedure done, and then coming back to the country of service to finish off the month.
Other factors to mention:
Keeping the pregnancy is NOT a desired option, even for just another month. Getting it done expeditiously is the primary goal.The country does not have adequate health care services .The partner is another volunteer in the same country.Plans to travel after service have already been arranged and paid for.
Thank you. Any and all advice or experiences is appreciated
